Hathaway is currently generating a great deal of positive buzz with her performance in "Rachel Getting Married."

Anne Hathaway has joined the cast of Tim Burton's upcoming Alice in Wonderland film for Disney.

Helena Bonham Carter, Tim Burton's fiancee and mother to his child, will also join the film. Carter has done fantastic work in many of Burton's previous films, including Sweeney Todd.

Hathaway and Carter join a small but impressive cast already signed on to do the film, which includes Mia Wasikowska as Alice and Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter.

The film will reportedly use both performance-capture technology and live action to portray the story originally by Lewis Carroll.

Hathaway will play the White Queen, who, according to the Hollywood Reporter, is described as "a benevolent monarch who is deposed and banished by her sister, the Red Queen (Carter), who has an affinity for crying out, "Off with their heads!"
